Shadow pop in issue (from nothing to shadow in one step)

[SinnerNL]

Hi there, yesterday after booting I noticed something I hadn't seen before, now I'm not sure if this is due to mods or something else. I have serious shadow pop in. Now I've read a lot about the issues of the shadow poing in from low res / gray to full dark shadow, but this in't that. I walk and see a building with a balcony withoutr any shadow, one step further the shadow is there, so from none to full in 1 step.

 

I have a GTX1080 and everything is on Ultra.

 

Is there any way to fix this? In one of the ini files? (see video)

Edit: I have the new texture pack installed and am on 1.9

That is "normal". Its called shadow distance and you can't really increase it to a level, where this does not happen, because it will murder your computer otherwise.

Still you can try to increase the shadow distance even higher. Nvidia Shadow Distance Guide

Strange, i have not noticed this since before yesterday, also, I think the distance is too short, about how far is the drop off from shadow to nothing?

 

Here is the non-zoomed in video, would you say that is the drop-off point for shadows? (I ask this because I saw shadows pop in on the right side of the screen when walking past a building and that building was not far off)

ps. the shadows on the nvidia distance guide look way further off than in my video?

It feels like where the normal switch between lowres shadow / dark shadow should happen, it just switches off (instead of lighter gray blur)
